TheSpeedGamers At It Again: 72 Hour Mega Man Marathon for the Earth

TheSpeedGamers will be gaming for charity once again this weekend. They will be playing through just about the entire Mega Man library for 72 hours. The marathon will start in just a few hours, kicking off at 6pm CST.

You may remember me writing about their previous week long Final Fantasy marathon that raised over $50,000 for ACT-Today (Autism Care and Treatment). This time around TheSpeedGamers will be raising money for the Earthday Network. Their current goal for this weekend’s fund raising efforts is $7,000. In the spirit of being green, they will be doing their commentator feeds outside when possible to use sunlight in lieu of indoor lighting.

Many great prizes will be given away to viewers and donators. Mana potions is supporting us again by giving the top 3 donators (6pack combo Mana/Health, T-shirt, Wristband, Mousepad) and top 3 runner-up donators (4pack Mana/Health, wristband) for the event.

I received an email from The Megas offering three great prizes for the marathon. Three bundles with a CD and a Mega’s shirt of the winner’s choice. If you haven’t already, check out The Mega’s debut album Get Equipped, a tribute to the MM2 soundtrack .
